Additionally, if you just open VPF7 and in command vindow issue ?_type, you should get 0 according to VFP documentation, but at least for me it is 918?!
And the very first /SELECT.../ statement gives the very same 918 no matter how many records there are collected!

But everything returns to 'normal' if the very first statement will be _tally=0
